Today, we explore and compare two popular summer tyres, the Giti Premium H1 made in China and the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 hailing from Hungary. Both have their unique strengths, with the Giti Premium H1 excelling in dry handling and the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 demonstrating superior dry braking capabilities.
The Giti Premium H1, achieving a 34% rating on our site, is a worthy competitor despite its lower rating. It impressively snagged the 9th position out of 20 in the Autozeitung test. It gained special mentions for its dry handling, dry steering response, and wet circle cornering capabilities. Meanwhile, during the AutoMotorSport test, this tyre proved its mettle in aquaplaning-crossovers and dry handling, once again securing the 9th spot, but in a pool of 11. However, the Giti Premium H1 might disappoint in the ADAC test, only securing the 11th position out of 16. All the more, no new tyre has replaced this model yet, and none is mentioned to be in the pipeline.
On the other hand, the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125, produced by Hankook, is a strong contender armed with a powerful 75% rating on our site. This tyre stands out for its superior dry braking, dry handling, and dry lane-changing abilities.

The Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 also proudly served as the first equipment for the Citroën C3 Aircross. It's worthwhile to note that this model has been replaced by the newer and improved Hankook Ventus Prime 4.
In conclusion, the Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 overall comes out slightly ahead of the Giti Premium H1 in mutual test positions. The Hankook's success lies in its reliable dry braking and exceptional dry handling.
